With a creak, the door of the virtual cabin opened. Roland, who was wearing comfortable pajamas, climbed out of it. He patted his face and found that he was in good spirits and did not feel like he had played games all night.
But it's normal to think about it. For eight hours, his body has been sleeping here, and only his consciousness has entered the game. Thinking about it, he really won't be tired.
He looked at his silver-white virtual cabin, which was shaped slightly like an egg. Internally, he felt that this thing was very crude. It was essentially an egg-shaped bed with a few LED indicators inside and two magnet-like objects near the top. There was nothing else worth mentioning. Picked up the device.
There is no high-end nutrient solution, nor is there any very sci-fi neural connection, but this thing can really make people completely immersed in the virtual world.
And the time ratio is an exaggerated 1:3, one hour in reality and three hours in the game.
The game only runs from 22:00 to 06:00 in the evening, which is exactly eight hours, which is exactly one day in the game. This is why playtime freezes the next day, as real-life playtime arrives.
Today is Saturday, no need to go to work. After playing on the treadmill for half an hour, Roland went to the bathroom to take a shower, then took out a piece of bread from the refrigerator, mixed it with mineral water and swallowed it, then turned on the computer and linked to the game forum.
Sure enough, the forum exploded.
In just an hour or so, the number of new topics in the forum reached more than 100,000, and the number was still increasing rapidly. Roland flipped through it and found that netizens were amazed that it was actually a real virtual reality game, and It's not false propaganda. Some netizens find it incredible that Penguin, which started out as a plagiarism company, could have copied such terrible technology.
Roland also had the same question, but the fact was before him that this was the world's first virtual game, so he didn't want to question the source of Penguin's technology. He continued browsing the forum and was soon laughing his eyes out.
There are many people praising the game, from all aspects. Some people think the NPCs in the game are very real, some think the environment is well done, and some think the world background is good. However, one player’s post was not only criticized by the administrator It has been added to the top, and there are almost the same number of 'likes' and 'dislikes'.
This player said that the NPC female inside can be conquered. She is a rare bard. This profession is a variant of the warlock. It has extremely high charm attributes. The most important thing is that it comes with the skill of "Language Proficiency". Use After that, you can understand what the NPC is saying.
Seeing this, Roland felt it was quite unfair... Why can a warlock cast a spell by simply pronouncing the name of the spell, while a mage needs to connect magic nodes to cast a spell? The difficulty is extremely high, and the differential treatment of this profession is too obvious. .
But when he read it patiently, he burst out laughing soon after.
This player relied on his high charm and proficiency in language magic to hook up with a young woman as soon as he entered the game. Then he was surprised to find that he could actually do certain things with female NPCs in the game. It was very real and very exciting.
This was not the reason for Roland to laugh. What happened next was a bit bloody. The two of them were discovered by the husband of the host, and then the husband brought a dozen big men to surround the player.
Although the bard is a multi-professor with strong combat power and good physical skills, he is naked, has no weapons, and his level is still low. He is no match for more than a dozen big men. After knocking down a few people, he was crushed to the ground. , what happened after that was tragic.
"There are mosaics all over the floor. Although it's not very painful, can you imagine the psychological blow? Can you imagine it? Anyway, I feel like I'm heartbroken."
The reply below the poster was all '66666', and an emoticon that made people laugh with tears in their eyes. The formation was quite neat.
Online game players Duo Qizhi... Roland also held his stomach and laughed so hard that his eyes watered. He finally stopped laughing and clicked on the 'Feedback' section.
Naturally, there were not as many posts in the feedback section as there were in the irrigation area. Roland flipped through it and found that most of the comments did not mention the point. If the changes were made as they did, the game would really be ruined. For example, someone They actually said that they would change the language of all races in the game to Chinese to make it easier for players to understand.
When I think of the blond magicians chanting all kinds of Chinese incantations, my balls suddenly hurt, and I feel so immersive.
Roland continued to scroll down, and then saw a topic that was somewhat related to him. A player suggested that the spellcasting difficulty of the mage profession should be reduced. Now all professions have combat effectiveness, except the mage.
The chopper system has high strength, the agility system is fast, and has long-range physical strikes. The warlock has innate spellcasting ability. The priest does not need to fight at all. Being protected by the choppers is good, as long as he throws in a few healing spells from time to time. ...Only the mage is very pitiful. He has poor melee combat ability and cannot cast spells. If he uses spells beyond his level, he will even get shot in the head.
This player is the president of a guild. He continued to write after the post: Especially the second-level magic, once it fails, it will be directly shot in the head. All the mages in my guild have the experience of being shot in the head, and some even more than once. , some girls are already suffering from psychological shadow. The most important thing is that no mage has claimed that he has successfully cast magic. If you don't believe it, the moderator can go to the 'Spellcaster' section and finally ask the planning team to give some hope.
After seeing that he was not the only one who had the experience of having his head shot, Roland's mood suddenly became balanced. He left the feedback column and went to the 'Spellcaster' column, and sure enough he saw the mage players howling like ghosts.
All kinds of crying and complaining about how miserable they are, how pitiful they are when the magic backfires when they cast spells. In fact, the headshot is relatively good, and the death is clean and tidy. What's even more terrifying is that two eyeballs spurted out from their sockets and then bled to death. Although the pain was only one-tenth of the pain, it was still painful enough.
Roland read this section for a long time, and then he was surprised to find that there was really no mage who claimed to have cast spells. On the contrary, there are many warlocks who are gloating about the misfortune and encouraging the mages to delete their accounts and join their ranks of warlocks.
How can this work... Roland found the mobile hard drive, connected it to the virtual computer, excerpted a fragment of his spell casting test, and posted it to the forum together with the four spell profiles, and then made a post called:
"Roland's Small Fireball Spell Casting Experience"
